Meet the Doctor

Dr. Rodney F. Holcombe

Originally from Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Holcombe received his bachelors in psychology from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia. He attended the Medical College of Virginia where he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery in 1986. He also completed a General Practice Residency in Advanced General Dentistry at the University of Maryland in Baltimore.

In 1987 Dr. Holcombe joined Dr. William Gill’s dental practice and together they opened the first practice in New Tampa in 1991. After purchasing that practice from Dr. Gill, Dr. Holcombe expanded to our current location in Tampa Palms.

Dr. Holcombe has been helping clients so they can enjoy smiling and eating again with cosmetic and implant dentistry. He has brought special timesaving methods of implant dentistry (Teeth in a Day) to “rescue” the denture client and those with debilitated teeth needing complete reconstruction in as little time as possible. He is recognized as one of the leading cosmetic dentist on the West Coast of Florida and is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He has mentored with The Hornbrook Group on anterior esthetics with live patient treatment. His experience with the Pankey Institiute and The Pete Dawson group has given him an extensive understanding of bite issues including worn teeth and TMJ problems. In addition, he has developed special techniques in sedation dentistry for the fearful patient. Most treatments are performed in the same office. This combined with advanced techniques, allows even the most compromised individual to return to a life of enjoying dental health.

Dr. Holcombe has gained the prestigious fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry, which is a testament to his dedication to continuing education and recognizes the broad range of dentistry that his post-graduate education provides for client benefit. In the summer of 2008 Dr. Holcombe attended the Misch International Implant Institute; the most acclaimed implant training institute in the world. He has trained with Dr. Tom Balshi at PI Institute; innovators of the Teeth in a Day concept. Dr. Holcombe is endorsed by more colleagues than any other Tampa doctor with a practice with a similar focus.

At Advanced Dental Associates, advanced learning and the implementation of new technologies at the leading edge of dentistry is a constant for Dr. Holcombe and his office of professionals. The friendly team is known for their down to earth and non-technical communication style making complex dentistry easy to understand.

Dr.Holcombe’s commitment to “Doing it Right” is a constant in our practice. You walk through our doors and you become a part of our family.

Eileen

I never thought I could have anything positive to say about a dentist, but there’s not enough I can say to sing Dr. Holcombe’s praises. A dentist concerned about your comfort and your state of mind, he takes the time to educate you about the procedures and puts your mind at rest. The only dentist I have ever trusted, I can’t recommend him enough.

Kim

I never had to explain or justify my incredible fears to receive extra gentle care.

You all have given a beautiful smile to a woman had no smile. You have given me self confidence where I had none. You have personally inspired me with your wonderful attitudes and work ethics. Clearly, you have changed my life - all that from a "dentist office". You should all be very proud! My deepest gratitude.

Georgia

I was a "white knuckle" case when I first started, Dr. Holcombe and his staff have helped me immensely! I have had many procedures done and have always been put to ease and treated with care and concern for my well being. I have learned better dental habits and able to pass those habits on to my grandchildren. Thanks so much for all you have done for me!

Meg

A very professional and excellent staff. The office has a great atmosphere always cheerful and upbeat. My teeth look great, thanks Dr. Holcombe.

Barbara

Very patient oriented. Exceptional professionalism. State of the art care. When you walk into the office you just know you are going to receive the best care possible.

Sharon

I have appreciated your extra ordinary kindness in helping me with my dental problems. You will never know how much it has helped, and has relieved my mind and my depression over not being able to solve my dental problems. The world could use more dedicated professionals such as yourselves, who truly care about people. You and your staff, and assistants have all been so kind and nice to me.

Thank you so much.

Tom

Excellent! Friendly and professional and very caring. I had a fractured crown that resulted in having the tooth removed and having an implant placed in a cosmetically sensitive area. Everything went smoothly and the final result unnoticeable I have always felt very comfortable and confident. Thanks.

Sam

There is no other way to explain it. Everyone’s "bedside manners" are fantastic. It’s as if you’re the only patient they have. I have a wonderful smile now. My self-confidence and self esteem is to a level I have not seen in years. Thank you.

Ryan

Wonderful, everyone in the office is friendly and professional. Every time I was in for an appointment it was as if I was visiting extended family. Everyone is interested and cares about you. My veneers are amazing. I have more confidence when I smile and get compliments all the time.

Ron

Dr. Holcombe’s office has always been a "make feel good" climate with very caring people. Very professional and great follow up care. Right now I have the best smile and healthy teeth than I have had in a long time. Feels great! I can travel with confidence.

Tina

My teeth were always an embarrassment to me. I was nervous about having work done. Dr. Holcombe understood my concerns and validated my deserving a better smile. I had 10 veneers placed, that were whiter thinner, and 100 times better than ever before. I had no pain, even after hours of drilling and several shots. I started smiling everywhere I went. My husband told me I had a "magazine smile". Now everyone notices my smile and they think it’s beautiful and natural. I cannot say enough about the friendly office staff and how easy it was to work with them, and what an incredible experience this whole process has been. Thank you.
